Capsaicin, the active ingredient, is oil extracted from the tissue of the cayenne pepper, which is located just below the stem.

The immediate effects of pepper spray are as follows:

* Temporary blindness
* Tearing and burning sensation in the eyes.
* Shortness of breath
* Choking and coughing
* Feeling of light-headedness
* Confusion and disorientation

Is it Fatal? Pepper spray was not designed to be fatal and there are no questionable contents that are to be found in pepper spray that may show evidences of becoming fatal. However, there are cases of deaths recorded that are associated with pepper sprays. This is primarily due to the allergic reaction, termed as anaphylaxis. Symptoms of anaphylaxis include fainting, shock and swelling. Asthmatics must also keep watch since they are likely to become infected with contact to serious dose of pepper sprays.

Is pepper spray training required? It is not a standard set for people using pepper spray to attend training regarding the use of the item. However, for the user’s safety and more effectivity of use, they are advised to enroll on such programs.

What is the strength of pepper sprays? The standard pepper spray strength is 15% active ingredients and 2 million HSU or Scoville Heat Units. The rating for HSU is much more essential than that of the rate for the active ingredient.

Is it the best solution? In actuality, it is not but this is rather dependent on the case. If for example your assailant is loaded with lethal weapons, he may have already injured you even before you successfully take out your pepper spray. In this case, it is best to avoid using it or you may end up being sprayed with your own pepper spray. You may also use it but be assured that it ill not backfire at you and keep it away from your assailant’s reach. The wisest thing to do is to refrain from unnecessary risks as much as possible.

Children must be kept away from pepper spray since they are fond of playing with novelty items. Many will attempt spraying the item to the air or at any object, including live things and most end up spraying themselves.

Challenge, Inform or Get Off The Stage - Presentation Skills and Powerful Public Speakers

“There are two types of speakers; those that are nervous and
those that are liars.” Mark Twain

Most of us put public speaking at the top of our list of things
to avoid. Then along comes that promotion or new opportunity,
and with it, new responsibilities. Among them: communicating,
powerfully and effectively in public. Before you rush to get out
of that responsibility, consider what it can do for you.

This one ability–communicating ideas powerfully and
effectively–can impact professional success more quickly and
more absolutely than nearly any other. Become an effective
communicator, and you will solidify a reputation as an effective
leader. Yet many otherwise accomplished executives never learn
to communicate well and take pains to avoid having to speak in
public at all.

That’s a lot of wasted opportunity. You can’t expect your ideas
to be considered or followed, much less admired, if they’re not
communicated well.

Speaking to a group, even a small group that knows you, can be
an intimidating. No one has yet died in the effort. We can all
get past our fear of public speaking with practice. The
important thing is to understand the power you have, that we all
have, to communicate effectively. Here are some tips for
powerful public speaking:

–Don’t hide behind charts, graphs and power point slides.
Despite the cliche, facts don’t speak for themselves. Materials
can only support your communication, not substitute for it.

–Accept the “public” part of public speaking. Speeches and
presentations delivered before an audience really are about you
and your ability to connect. If you’re bored, your audience will
be as well. Find the passion in your work and build your
presentation or speech around it.

–Put real effort into the question and answer period following
your speech or presentation. For many in the audience, it’s
their chance to connect with you and you to them.

–Make sure your public speech or presentation isn’t simply a
recitation of the facts. Your audience could get that from you
in an email. What any audience wants is your perspective. Always
provide a context for the data or information you provide.

–Never go long. Any performer knows it’s best to leave them
wanting more. Make sure you have something your audience can
take home with them to think about.

–Don’t forget to speak ABOUT something. Your main points should
be clearly stated and they’ll be back. Before long, you’ll be
wondering how you ever considered public speaking something to
avoid!

Above all, practice, practice, practice. Don’t run from public
speaking opportunities–embrace them–and the power they have to
promote your professional success.
